"Mommy, mommy!" the little girl exclaimed, running towards her mother.

"Hey, Natalie. Go wash your hands, it smells like dinner is ready," she greeted. Then Henry walked out of the kitchen. "Thank you for looking after her while I was in the hospital,"

"Oh it was nothing, I love looking after my granddaughter. How about I meet my new granddaughter?" he replied.

Just then Barry walked in holding a small baby in a blanket. "Honey, I told you to sit down, you need to rest," he fussed over Caitlin.

"I love you but you need to stop fussing, we had another baby. It's not like I almost died or anything," she replied but sat down anyway and gestured for them to sit down too. She rested her head on her husband's shoulder and they cradled their newborn daughter that Henry was now looking at with a smile on his face. She was a peaceful baby and she'd been sound asleep all the way home.

They turned their heads when they heard the light footsteps of a small three-year-old. Their small three-year-old. Her long brown her was loose and her big green eyes were scanning the absent-mindedly. Her nose wrinkled slightly when she was concentrating and her freckled made her the cutest little girl.

"Can I see her?" she asked. They nodded nad the little girl came running to sit on her father's lap so she could have a better look at her little sister. "What is she called?" she asked.

"This is Nora Isabel Allen and she is your baby sister so you have to be really nice to her and take care of each other," Caitlin replied.

"Okay, mommy. I love you and daddy and Nora and grandpa, Henry," she said sweetly, her nose wrinkling again. There was a beep coming from the kitchen.

"Dinner's ready," Henry said and went into the kitchen.

"You know, I might get some rest," Caitlin said, getting up and going upstairs and taking baby Nora with her. She went into Nora's room and placed her in the crib, watched her baby girl for a few seconds then proceeded to her and Barry's room.

Quickly, she changed into her sleepwear and got in bed. She picked up her phone and skimmed through her notifications. 

About half an hour later, Barry walked in and sat next to her.

"Hey honey," she greeted softly.

"I'm just gonna go put Nat to sleep and then I'll be right back," he replied, kissing her cheek then leaving the room.

"I love you," she whispered. It had been a little while and the married couple were cuddling in bed.

"I love you too," he replied, kissing her head.

"I can't believe that we have our own family now. Our own little children and they're so small and innocent," she said.

"I know, it only seems like yesterday when we had to hide our relationship,"

"Mmmm, at least we're together now and married with our own house and family. Now we can hold hands and kiss and cuddle in public. Just like this," she finished then they kissed. "I'm so terribly in love with you," she whispered. "But I missed the part where that's bad," she continued.

"I love you more,"

She inverted their position so she was on top. "Oh really," she teased, leaning down to kiss him again. "Prove it," she whispered...

A Couple Hours Later

"Okay, I definitely love you more now," he stated breathlessly.

"Uh huh," she replied, also pretty breathless. It seems that they'd been out of practise considering that Caitlin had just been pregnant. "I've missed this,"

"What?"

"You, me. You know... Sex," she replied.

"I second that,"

She giggled and snuggled up to him. "I'm so glad I found you," she said softly, her tone turning more serious and sincere.

"Me too,"
